Matteo stumbled onto the ground, defeated. He was going to die in the next 15 minutes, no matter if the hunters killed him or if he won. "He's over here, hurry up we've got him." Ambar screamed as she sprinted towards him, shield in her left hand, her diamond axe pointing towards him. Matteo tried to run as he felt as sudden slash of pain in his left leg, he winced as he felt the arrow seep into his body.
Suddenly Matteo saw his best friends, his lover, his soulmate circling around him, ready to slaughter him. Luna's eyes burned with tears as Gaston gripped his netherite sword so tightly that his hand lost its color, he could not lose his soulmate. Simon's eyes we no longer a bright hazel, they were dull with grief and acceptance. Nina hugged onto Ambar, not even able to look at Matteo. She had shot him with her crossbow.
"Matteo..." Luna sobbed dropping her netherite axe and shield, trying to embrace him. Matteo reached for her as Ambar held her back as she whispered softly, "Luna, we can't they'll kill us." "I DON'T CARE AMBAR, I'VE LOST EVERYTHING. I CAN'T LOSE MATTEO THIS TIME." Luna yelled, trying to push Ambar out of the way. "Luna..." Gaston whispered, "We have to kill him" he sobbed quietly. "NO, I AM NOT GOING TO KILL THE LOVE OF MY LIFE." Luna sobbed as Matteo looked her in the eyes.
"Luna, look me in the eyes," Matteo pleaded, eyes defeated and wet with tears.
Luna dropped to the ground next to him. He cupped her cheek in his hand, "It's ok, I'll be in a better place. Don't worry about me." he smiled through the tears. "Oh, Matteo please don't say that. We can make it out alive, we have to beat the game, together." Matteo slightly chuckled. "Luna, my love we can't beat the game, we're going to die no matter who wins." "Matteo please don't say that-"Luna started, gulping her sobs. Matteo smiled, "You're so optimistic, I've always loved you for it. But I'm sorry Luna, I'm going to die. We can't do anything about it."
Luna grabbed him by the t-shirt as Matteo winced in pain. She kissed him as hard as she could. It would be the last time in their lives. Luna just couldn't accept it, she couldn't lose Matteo. She had already lost so many of her friends to this manhunt, but she refused to lose Matteo. After everything they had lived in the horrible world, he was her first and last true love.
Matteo kissed her with as much force but he couldn't stop thinking about what was going to happen. He had to kill all of them to succeed. But Matteo would live with the consequences. He would lose everything.
Was all this worth it? Money couldn't ever replace any of the 5 other hunters. There was only one option, Matteo and Gaston had agreed it was for the best. No one else knew about this.
All of them would have to die at the end of this
"Because if I die, we all die together" Matteo whispered, breaking the kiss softly. Luna's face darted in realization, "The TNT, Matteo no, please don't do this we can all make it out alive, please don't do this." Luna screamed.

Manhunt. 5 hunters, 1 runner. 5 people dead, or 1, a death sentence. The kingdom of Disturbia was long gone. War had broken out; food was running out, and people were dying. Every full moon there was manhunt, a runner was chased to their death. God, it's brutal out there. Full armor, netherite swords, crossbows, potions, but finally; death. There wasn't a single manhunt where the runner won. But what did the hunters gain? Nothing, the kingdom can't afford to give 5 people loads of money. However, if the runner won, they earned 1500 quibble, enough money for the rest of their life. But would risk the death of 5 people. Some might say that money can win happiness, but is money worth the death of 5 people? I'll let you think about that. 6 people, united by love and friendship, Luna Valente, Ambar Smith, Matteo Balsano, Gaston Perida, Simon Alvarez, and Nina Simonetti. But in the end, only one of them would live.
